What has happened in the past month

Alright I know it's been a long time since I've made a post, but I kind of have a reason. I've been super busy that's why! Now lets sit back and listen to me type.

On July 22nd Catie and I went down to Myrtle Beach for about 4 days. We left at 4pm on Tuesday after work and got down there around 2am Wednesday morning. It was a really nice and needed break. We did a bunch of touristy stuff while down there. The first night down there we all went to the Liberty Steak House for dinner. Needless to say it was amazing food and beer.

This is the first thing you see when you get there

They do Love America

I opened the menu to find that the still served "Freedom Fries"

I had to have me some "Freedom Fries"

After a plate of fries some popcorn buffalo shrimp and a delicious oatmeal porter beer.

Needless to say it was all delicious and we ended up going back a second time a couple days later. If you're ever in Myrtle Beach check out Liberty Steak House.

When we got back I started getting ready for another big thing that happened. I started packing for THE BIG MOVE! Well not that big. I have moved back in with Tauzin again. We found a totally sweet place. 1500 square feet, finished basement, covered back porch, the works. So that's been a pain in my ass, but luckily I've had Catie with me this whole time. I could not I repeat NOT have done this without her. She has put up with me being a cranky asshole for more then a week and still will lay next to me and cuddle. She's the bestest.

Update:Check out my flickr on the right there to see some pics of the new place as I'm fixing it up.

Other then that things have been the normal. I started my 5th term of school a few weeks ago. This is the hardest term that we have and it's already showing. I don't remember being this worried about school since I started. Fingers crossed that I get through without killing my GPA.

Music: Give Defiance, Ohio a listen to. Think of a folkier less poetic version of Cursive's "Ugly Organ". Cursive meets Against Me!....not to bad.

Movies:
Just Add Water - Standard little film about a nice guy living in a down and out town. He gets picked on and put down from every angle except for the grocery store clerk. Staring Jonah Hill, Justin Long, Danny Devito, and Dylan Walsh.

The Onion Movie - Based around the Onion Paper. Basically a bunch of short "funny" clips strung together through a news anchor. There is a small plot somewhere in the background. I thought it was going to be much funnier then it was.

Persepolis - A great animated story about a young Iranian girl during the Islamic revolution. Really a great film. I did not expect to get as much out of this film as I did. Definitely check it out.

30 Days of Night
- During 30 days of pure night a small Alaskan town is attacked by Vampires. Doesn't sound like much, but it turned out to be a great vampire film. I rented this down in Myrtle Beach to watch and expected to want to turn it off half way through, but never wanted to. The ending was a bit weak, but man did it have some good gore in it.

21 - The movie about a group of MIT students that counted cards in Vegas. Staring Jim Sturgess, and Kevin Spacey. I really like gambling and poker, so I really enjoyed this film. Good story, but I'm not sure if someone not into poker would enjoy it as much.

Step Brothers - So far the FUNNIEST MOVIE of the summer. It's about two 40 something guys who still live with their parents. Their parents get married and thusly the two guys become step brothers. The plot is nothing special or deep, but we laugh through about 90% of that film. It was great. Starring Will Farrel and John C. Riley.



I'll leave you with this....it is completely real!
